Socioemotional development of a child is an integral part of a child's development. Through interaction with the environment, the child learns to regulate his emotions and direct his behaviors. Dance is a complex artistic activity whose elements are creativity and music. Creativity allows children to express their inner needs and individual reality, while music has a therapeutic effect on the individual. We associate creativity with creative dances, which is defined as the interpretation of children's ideas, feelings and sensory impressions that the child expresses with his body symbolically through various movements. Dancing is also a physical activity that helps to achieve maximum optimization of the functional abilities of the individual, and affects the motor and emotional development of the child. Dance and movement are used for therapeutic purposes, within dance and movement therapy with the aim of encouraging the emotional, cognitive, social bodily integrations of the individual. Research has shown that dancing lifts the mood and accordingly has a positive effect on a child's socio-emotional development.
